That's subsistence farming. If you had a decent size farm you would not have been doing all the work.


The point is that he is still affected by the soybean sales blockage by China. He does have skin in the game. I think that is what he was trying to convey. Stop trying to parse everything people in the administration say with a negative spin.

LOL!

No.

The POINT is that he said he's a farmer and he's a liar.

He's a billionaire absentee landlord.

When you stop defending liars you'll feel better.

From Wiki:

In the context of agribusiness, a farmer is defined broadly, and thus many individuals not necessarily engaged in full-time farming can nonetheless legally qualify under agricultural policy for various subsidies, incentives, and tax deductions.

Not "Nuff" to back up Bessent.

He's just a rich absentee landlord and he lied about being a farmer.

You purport to pay attention to facts. By definition of farmer by IRS, Department of Agriculture etc. he is a farmer. Your narrow definition of farmer does not apply to a lot of farmers or farming business.

From where I sit, you seem to like cherry picking your definitions and facts.

LOL! The IRS is about taxes. A farmer farms--doesn't just collect rent.

Unless he wears overalls, he's no farmer.

I couldn't care less what the IRS says.

So what's your point.

Bessen is a billionaire absentee landlord.......not a farmer.

@Tanks beat me to it. Your facts are very selective.

That's pretty provincial of you.

It's a fact.

Damn all these "fake" farmers!!!

 

[wesheltonj]

And they are facts.

So the United State Code definition of farmer and rancher is wrong?

No, the IRS has their own tax definition.

Not related to real world reality.

I am not reading his nonsense, but you are attempting to have a "debate" with someone with the mental - if not physical - maturity of an eighteen-year-old with access to a keyboard. It is a waste of time and effort. He is not present here to engage in any thoughtful discussion. Turn him off.

Well, I was trying to put some bait in the water to troll the troller. But you are right, he does not have the mental capacity, he’s too busy getting AI answers to support his whacked positions. For a.
